The 59th Detroit Autorama
The 59th Detroit Autorama
Highlights from the 2011 Detroit Autorama show at Cobo HallWhat's the greatest indoor hot rod show in the country? Left coasters say it's the Grand National Roadster Show, currently held in Pomona, California, while Midwesterners vote for the Detroit Autorama, now in its 59th year. HOT ROD shrewdly claims neutrality. The top trophy at the Motor City show is the Ridler Award, which went to Bruce Ricks' '56 Ford convertible. The impossibly straight ragtop bested one of the more diverse fields of Pirelli Great 8 finalists in recent history, which includes Derick Samson's '52 Chevy business coupe, Jim Marciniak's chopped '63 Riviera, and the roadsterized '47 Chevy pickup of Tim Gunsalus. Not a single '32 Ford made the final eight this year, which is a bit of an upset in itself. The attendance at Cobo Hall was strong, the punkabilly band in the basement was rockin', and everyone had a swell time.
